Stage Flight

10 times in 10 years is nowhere near enough. Though these sounds I’ve found, They’re quite renowned. They call me on my bluff. I could call him humble gleaner, With a will to stand in quicksand. He knows I get the shakes. But a minute with him and I’m ready to swim. He knows I’ve got what it takes. I should call her Thumbelina, With the fastest hands in the land. She’s there with me when I wake. Through whimsical words and unwavering plans, We can laugh at every mistake. Embrace this place. Self pity is never pretty. He’s so calming, she’s so witty. So pick up your feet and own their city.

There’s nowhere to hide.

Swallow that pride.

Recall their wise words.

It’s high time to glide.
